Weather in August
Temperature
The shift into August reveals an average high-temperature of a hot 30.1°C (86.2°F), closely mirroring July's climate. The nighttime temperature, during August, averages of 19.1°C (66.4°F).Heat index
Throughout August, the heat index is calculated to be a torrid 36°C (96.8°F). Take extra precautions, as heat cramps and heat exhaustion are possible. Sustained activity may result in heatstroke.From a standpoint of the heat index, values pertain to shaded conditions and mild breezes. A direct sunlight exposure may boost the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'felt air temperature', represents the fusion of temperature and moisture in the air to suggest how warm it feels. The impact of weather is individual, with diverse individuals experiencing it differently due to variations in body mass, height, and activity levels. When in direct sunlight, one should be cautious as it can raise the heat index by as much as 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values hold particular importance for children. Youngsters frequently overlook the need for breaks and fluid intake. Thirst is an advanced sign of dehydration - thereby highlighting the importance of keeping hydrated, particularly during long physical activities.
Evaporating sweat is a key way the human body dispels excessive warmth, all thanks to the process of perspiration. During high air temperature and humidity (high heat index), the process of perspiration is hindered, intensifying the sensation of heat. As body temperatures escalate without effective heat release, one might face dehydration threats.
